Hi, SR owner, I had the same problem a few weeks ago.
The problem is that the air filter is bloking the breath of the crankcase.
The breath of the crankcase is a small hole near the big hole of the intake of the carb in the air filetr box. The cause is taht when the engien is on it stars to generate fumes and taht fumes must come out form the crankcase but the air filter is blocking the coming out of the fumes and provoces a increase of the fumes on the crankcase and ofcourse an increase on the preasure on that fumes so thats why the oil comes out of that breath, try running it without the air filter and you´ll see, then try repair the air filter. }
GOOD LUCK!
